Hey, today my Pixel 3 XL arrived and i moved from iPhone to the Pixel.
I had like 1300 pictures from my iPhone on my computer, then I moved the pictures via FileManager to my Pixel.
And the Pixel automatically created like 300 or more folders with about 2 pictures each in it.
Is there any easy way I get all the pictures out of the folders? I don't need folders in my libary, I just want all pictures side by side and no folders.
I didn't know that Android creates for every App that edits pictures a new folder.
Hope someone can help, I don't wanna drag each pic out of it's folder

The folder names are: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 ...... and a,b,c,d,e,f,g and so on.
Thanks so muuch.
Yeah, over the past few years, the photo app has been really annoying in the way it structures saved photos. Honestly, the best way to do it is find a new photo album app and use that to look up photos. Even when I get a popup asking me if I want to create a new folder for a picture, I say no, and its still in there with new folder. Then every few weeks I go through deleting stupid folders with 1 picture I didnt want.

Yeah its really annoying.
But in my head its like, if I use everything from Google, it works the best and the userexperience is better then thirdparty apps.
It's all from one company.
But thats just me and my thinking. :laugh:
Can you recommend a thirdparty App?

First let me say welcome (or welcome back) to Android. I don't know how many GB your pics amount too, but I've had good luck zipping a huge amount of pics into a single zip file, transferring it to my phone and then using a quality file manager (solid explorer / root explorer) to extract. Dunno? maybe it will take splitting the 1300/2 or even 3 files but it can be done. When zipping on your Mac/PC just use "no compression", "wrapper", or "minimal". This results in a fast compression because the pics are already compressed. I'm not an apple guy at all but I can tell you zipping 100's of files is no big deal on a PC, nor extracting them into the DCIM folder on your shiny new Pixel. Unlock your bootloader NOW if you are able, because unlocking it later will wipe all your data including any photos not backed up to the cloud (Photos). I also thought there was a way to transfer from Apple cloud to Google Photos, but again I am not an Apple guy at all. (disclaimer: I just have to buy them for my wife and daughter)

Wut? My Photos folder has no subfolders all my photos are in there, bro. And Google Photos rocks on many different levels. YMMV?

You know, I guess it depends on what app I am using when trying to look up a photo. You are correct, when just going directly to the photo album app, all my photos are just laid out. It's when I click the "albums" icon that its a complete mess. Also, pretty much every time I open the app, I get multiple notifications for "new folder found". Most of the time those are singular pictures my security system took. Annoyingly, they are all one photo in each "new" folder. So I have to go in and delete each folder individually.

Still having this issue? I can write a script that should be able to automatically move each file to a new single folder.
Probably only 10 lines of code.
I don't think you need root, just let me know and I can try and throw it together.

Anyone know a reason why after rebooting phone the media scan takes a very long time?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
It depends on how much you have on your sd card. The more you have the longer it takes.
I wonder what the ratio to time being done scanning is , because i only have maybe 2-3 gigs worth of media and it takes like 10 minutes to finish scanning media
It isn't just the size of the files. The number of files that it has to check matters too. If there are any folders that you don't need scanned, put a file called .nomedia in that folder and the scanner will skip that finder and it's subfolders.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
any way to find out what its scanning and where, or is it scanning the whole sd card?
It scans the whole sd card, except for folders with the .nomedia file.
What is the purpose of the scan? If I put the .nomedia file in every directory what would happen?
Then it won't know where pictures are music are on your sdcard. For example, pictures in a folder with .nomedia will not show up in your gallery.

So I can put .nomedia in many folders (like where apps are installed on the SD card) that I know no pics or music should be in.
Exactly what type of file does the .nomedia file need to be?

It doesn't matter. You can simply make it an empty text file. The media scanner just checks for a file with the name .nomedia. It doesn't care what kind of file it is.
will the .nomedia thing stop winamp from trying to play mp3(turns out they were .ogg) files that are simply sounds to a game? The game is dungeon hunter and the question is nearly academic because I don't really like it and will probably uninstall it in the near future.. But still, I want winamp to play my music mp3s, which are all in a folder /music and nothing else..
meh, I can just try it and see before anyone even reads this and replies..
SUCCESS! no more "raw1385" in my winamp playlist

I think if you put .nomedia everywhere you will basically lose all functionality of gallery, etc. You may want to try "Rescan Media ROOT" from the market. It requires root, as you can tell from its name, but it lets you turn off the automatic media scanning and do it manually whenever you need (which is almost never in my case). That combined with judicious use of .nomedia has been wonderful.
I guess if you change what media is on your phone a lot, this will be less useful, but for me, it's saved a tremendous amount of time and helped convert my high-powered media-scanning device back into a phone.
do you think that the type of sd card , like the stock one that came with the phone might be lower quality and take longer or is there one thats extreme high quality ?

The sdcard included is only a class 2, but it has more than enough throughput for the media scan. You can get a class 4 or class 6 card, but I doubt it will make much of a difference in the amount of time the media scanner is running.
My phone has been getting stuck often on the media scan process. Sometimes it get's stuck in the middle, sometimes it never stops. I recently reformatted my sd but the problem still exists. Also, I often have trouble mounting the sd in recovery. I'm using a class 6 8gb transcend which I've had for about a year or more. Is it possible my card is just going bad and is there a good way to tell?
Its the phone for some reason when I was on di18 it was taking a very long time to scan after awhile it just got really short. Sorry I don't the exact reasoning but I re formatted my card and it didn't help.
FROZEN EPIC

I guess you could try a different card with the same files and see what the difference in scan time is. Or try them both freshly formatted and empty.
There are always ways to test.

If you want facebook stuff out of contacts, open the people app, hit menu then view, and uncheck facebook for htc sense. This will not remove the facrbook stuff already there you will have to delete it manualy but it will stop new stuff from being added or updated.

I'm not on a sense rom tthough. I'm on cm7. I don't have that feature
-My life is a shooting range, people never change-
I think this is really annoying, too. Especially if you switch between Sense and AOSP roms. Unfortunately, I haven't found a quick way to mass delete all the notes. You have to manually edit each contact and erase it. But as long as you never use another Sense rom, the notes won't fill back up, so that's a plus.
Neat trick I have used before, though: delete the notes with MIUI. It's got a quick clear button to erase all the content in a contact's note box. You still have to manually edit each contact, but it's a little faster than CM7 or anything...
You can also try this app that's supposed to replicate the MIUI contacts and see if that works for the quick clear: http://goo.gl/TtOcU
Hope this made sense.
Just putting it out there that there may be an app that can do this.
I know I used an app to erase a bunch of annoying duplicate contacts I had after I accidently restored them 3 times. Of course this is a much more specific problem, and I haven't checked, but just throwing ya some ideas
just went through them all. thumb hurts. lol

Only by doing it manually
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
I had to do it manually too. I sync my Gmail contacts so it was a little easier to manually erase the "HTC Notes" on the web interface.
1. Export all the contacts to the SD card, which produces a .VCF file.
2. Edit this VCF file with a good text editor like TextPad, and use that to delete any lines beginning with 'NOTE:', e.g. use the regular expression '^NOTE:'
3. Delete all the contacts off the phone - the app 'Contact Remover' can do this.
4. Force a sync; this is because you may get a warning about too many deletions. If so, confirm the delete. Check they are all gone.
5. Import from the SD card.

Not one click, but it works way better than what I've had to do before.
1. Open contacts in gmail on web.
2. Export all contacts to GoogleCSV
3. Download the file.
4.Edit the CSV and just clear the whole notes column or edit them individually if you have contacts with notes already.
5. Delete all your gmail contacts.
6. Import newly edited file.

Wouldn't this remove any contact pictures associated with those contacts?
I don't believe the CSV file stores the picture....which means in my case I'd have just as much of a PITA to fix the pictures.
I'm really surprised no one's created a contact cleaner app yet... there was a great one on my old Palm device eons ago that would let you do all sorts of things to standardize your contacts.
Can't JOIN contacts if HTCData exists in notes field
I wrote up my solution to this problem a little bit here thanks to the this forum thread above.

Is there anyway I can stop my gallery from showing photos such as photo posts from G+ and picasa "scrapbook photos" that I don't even use :s and a dropbox folder that I also don't use?
Thanks
You can try placing a file called ".nomedia" in those folders but that will prevent the media content from showing up in other applications as well (e.g. mp3 in music app).
Personally I tried to customize the gallery to my liking with no luck. It was pretty frustrating but I've been using QuickPic since and it works like a charm.
EDIT: Oh and the picasa/google+ can be eliminated by clearing the google+ app data in app settings, and then disabling photo sync when you re-login to your google+ account. Again I found this to be hit or miss so your results may vary.
a question about stock gallery app...
I would ask an option to ordering image in gallery by date of addition or creation, I know that there are apps like QuickPic that they do but I would like to use stock gallery, any suggest? Thanks a lot.
PS.
Sorry for my english!

I had the very same problem my friend and it was driving me NUTS! I tried a lot of things but no matter what the "Scrapbook Photos" and "Profile Photos" folders kept showing up in my gallery. I do know of one way you can get rid of these album folders.
First, go into your G+ account and go to your scrapbook folder or picasa folder (can't remember how they labeled it), and then delete the entire folder or app or feature. Basically, just stop the service to picasa. This may be a deal-breaker for some but it sounds like your like me and don't use picasa anyway. That's why it kept showing up as an album folder with no images in it....just empty.
Second, to get rid of the profile folder, I'm sorry to say, the only way I know how is to delete your profile picture in G+. Again, for some that's out of the question...but for me it was worth it bc I hated having those albums in my gallery and I never really used G+. I'm not sure if Alanid's method will work as I never thought to try that but I did try some things that were very similar and it never permanently got rid of those pesky albums. They just kept regenerating everytime I took a picture or hit the refresh button in the gallery. This worked for me....
As for the dropbox album, I never had that problem. But I imagine you could get rid of it by deleting any photos you have in your dropbox...not sure about that one though.
Well, I hope I was of assistance. Good luck!

Sorry this is literally a new pop up and im noticing alot of the questions about this have been posted recently. please answer as detailed and turthfully as possible
I do have vr camera installed. Not much else. I deleted the folder and file to see if they pop up again.
I had installed samsung ipolis at one time.
Anyone come up with any more information on this? Just came across it on my own phone today. Google search turns up a few other posts about it but no info on what it is. I am suspicious that it *might* be associated with the DirecTV app because I just downloaded it today and then happened to notice that folder in / with a last modified timestamp of today. Other than that I have nothing to go on.
I suspect it's some 3rd party tool that many different software vendors will use.
Kind of how like everyone uses Flash or Java for something or other.
After deleting, it was consistently recreated shortly after rebooting. Using this behavior and after much trial and error I found that if I disabled storage permissions for the Directv app it would not be recreated. I don't know yet if it has an adverse effect on the app to leave the permission disabled. I wonder if it is related to the app's commication with the receiver since many of the references to eyeball sdk when googled are related to messaging. Just a thought with no hard evidence.
About the file EYEBALLSDKLogs. I just got the Samsung S7 and also the Galaxy Tab E on promo deal, but my husband and I both have S5 Actives that we have used for a little over 2 years now. Best phones we've owned BTW! Any who, before downloading any apps to either one of the new ones, I of course played with them a couple of days to get used to the features and see what was new. Tab E is pretty much a big version of S7 phone. They both had this new file that stuck out like a sore thumb considering the name of the file is a bit funny, but this file hasn't ever been on our other devices and we had the different messaging apps, I had a couple VR apps but deleted Ayer a few days & this particular file has never shown up. I did notice the DIRECTTV App was already pre-installed on the S7 and Tab E so it's very likely that's were this file is coming from. I just don't understand why after using the Directtv App it shows the file size with 50mb instead of 00.0 before use, but no extensions to the file when I click on it. I did delete it but as soon as I opened the DirectTv app, Viola' it's back.

Similar files
Had similar files on my stock LG tribute HD. Undoubtedly picked them up after getting greedy and down loading free cracked/nodded app not from playstore. Found this searching. Idk but it appears to be a p2p, remote client app. Have not checked Hybrid Analysis site for review yet but will.
*cannot post link as this is my first xda post. The site that has the developers description is slides hate.net eyeball-messenger-sdk-v100
Woukd like to hear input as this raises concerns and is suspicious in nature. Thanks
Hello, I just wanted to chime in and say thay I think it has something to do with the Directv app. The DVR portion in particular. I noticed when I tried viewing my dvr on the app, it had a quick view feature and it must have created that folder because I noticed mine after I was messing around with the Directv app.
I am hoping someone has a simple method or maybe a link to a youtube video that shows how to copy/move files to the Pixel Watch from either a Win10 computer or a Pixel 6 Pro phone.
Similarly, a way to possibly copy text or jpg images to the watch if there is a way to display them from some ascii text reader app or image display app. I sometimes like to have a simple note about how to do something on my portable device.
I see a thread on using some "nav-xxx" but since it is not available in the PlayStore, I don't see how to get it on the watch in the first place. I also saw a thread on some other method but when I fired it up - I was lost!!!! I have dealt with computers for eons so should be able to manage but those same eons may have resulted in my gray matter is stretched thin.
Thanks in advance.
You can do it via adb commands. But I'm not sure how to play MP3s on the watch.
I'm using an app called wear media music player (by qubin apps) that transfers mp3, m4a files and works as a player as well. It's not free, but it works well enough.
Going to investigate the app. Thanks for the reply.

I was wondering if there were any kind of File Explorer? I'm always curious about what is lurking in the folders of MY (meaning, don't keep me out) devices.
@Rp2pilot
They both seem to work. I'm not sure that the quality of the audio (Mendelssohn's Scottish) is all that terrific on the watch but it is there!!!
I also transferred two photos to the watch. They wound up in the topmost folder/directory. I was able to copy/move them to the Pictures folder. Now, viewing them is like using a microscope to view. Slide the view field around to see the entire photo.
But THANKS for the references.
Edited to add:
Okay, I am amazed (easily impressed, perhaps). I copied an ascii text file, a spreadsheet and a pdf to the watch. The text file just opened and I could read it, It looks as if I could also edit it. The excel spreadsheet (no app to open prompts). The pdf file opened as pdf could not be navigated. But it also offered text view and I was able to read it. Now, obviously the screen a(watchface) is a bit constrained but... Still impressed.

I also transferred two photos to the watch. They wound up in the topmost folder/directory. I was able to copy/move them to the Pictures folder. Now, viewing them is like using a microscope to view. Slide the view field around to see the entire photo.
But THANKS for the references.
Edited to add:
Okay, I am amazed (easily impressed, perhaps). I copied an ascii text file, a spreadsheet and a pdf to the watch. The text file just opened and I could read it, It looks as if I could also edit it. The excel spreadsheet (no app to open prompts). The pdf file opened as pdf could not be navigated. But it also offered text view and I was able to read it. Now, obviously the screen a(watchface) is a bit constrained but... Still impressed.

How do you open those files? I mean, is there a file browser out there?

I think there may be some inherent file browser that can handle opening some file types. But the there is the app "myWear File Explorer" that I used to navigate to the text and jpg files. If I can manage a screen capture, I will post an image or two. Admittedly, the results may not be completely practical on the small watch face but it can be done in some cases.
Two jpgs of a jpg file I transferred to the watch. Same image scrolled to reveal different sections.

Screen capture of a text file I transferred to the watch. The watch or the inherent app actually "word wrapped" the plain text file.
I tried opening an xl spreadsheet. But it can't do it.
A view of a pdf file I transferred.
